Boxing documentary exploring Japanese boxing during Inoue vs Nakatani fight week, as boxing analyst A Guy Called Henry travels through Tokyo to understand what makes boxing in Japan different. In this boxing documentary, I travel to Tokyo for Naoya Inoue vs Junto Nakatani fight week to explore Japanese boxing from the gyms to the small-hall scene, the press conferences, the weigh-in, and fight night itself. Featuring MT Boxing Gym, Junto Nakatani, Rudy Hernandez, KOD Lab, Takashi Uchiyama, Ryoichi Taguchi, Korakuen Hall, Japanese boxing prospects Kokoa Taguchi and Shion Yokoyama, hard sparring, matchmaking culture, and the deeper question of what Western boxing may have lost. This is The Discipline of Damage: a documentary about Japanese boxing, respect, danger, discipline, hard matchmaking, and what the sport looks like when it gets closer to its essence. #boxingdocumentary #japaneseboxing
